SATO's PJM RFID Integrated into Fantasy, World Leading Diamond ERP System

SATO and GemBox RFID co-announced today that SATO's unique PJM RFID technology has been integrated into Fantasy, world's largest ERP System for diamond by Rubinstein Software.

SATO, a leader in barcode printing, labeling, and EPC/RFID solutions, and GemBox RFID (Sydney, Australia), a provider of RFID stock-take-view solutions for diamond & gemstone cutters and dealers, co-announced today that SATO’s unique PJM[1] RFID technology has been integrated into Fantasy, world’s largest ERP System for diamonds by Rubinstein Software. 

Having over 200 clients, the Fantasy ERP system is used by the most established multinational diamond cutters and dealers around the world. It is known for its highly specialized functionalities to satisfy the complicated inventory handling needs of the diamond industry. 

GemBox RFID has designed and developed highly reliable RFID stocktaking solutions utilizing the PJM technology, which Rubinstein Software now adopts into Fantasy. “Stock-counting is the most critical yet most time consuming and human dependent operation for all diamond manufacturers, dealers and jewelers,” said Jason Ree, CEO of GemBox RFID, “We have searched the world for an RFID technology that can ensure 100% reading accuracy of very closely stacked brifkas[2]. All other RFID systems fail in this environment and it was a dream come true, when I first saw a PJM RFID reader, in front of my eyes, reading 200 RFID tags in 1 second without a miss.”

SATO acquired Magellan Technology, inventor of the unique PJM RFID technology in December 2013, and continues to pursue the research and development of the same technology today. “We are extremely excited to be the strategic solution component of the new Fantasy,” said Kaz Matsuyama, President & CEO of SATO Holdings, “PJM RFID will provide the incomparable advantage to Fantasy, enabling users to enjoy its fantastic new functionalities while receiving SATO’s high-quality localized technical services at the global scale.”

New RFID functionalities including PJM RFID stock-take-view solutions and PJM RFID printing solutions are now available for new users of Fantasy and existing users through system upgrades.
